The full story

Built in the eighteenth century for a noble family, Casal Solleric pairs a Baroque courtyard and ceremonial stair with a present role as an exhibition venue. Today, Casal Solleric is best understood through the stone courtyard, grand stair and contrast between historic rooms and new art. The wider Casal Solleric context is a Baroque mansion used for contemporary exhibitions on Passeig del Born. Follow the plan rather than hunting for a single façade. Entrances, stairs, courtyards and main rooms reveal how people were meant to move through the building. Materials and proportions become clearer in that order, showing how practical needs and visual ambition were resolved within one architectural composition. Before leaving Casal Solleric, set its arrival image—the stone courtyard—against its closing image: a Baroque mansion used for contemporary exhibitions on Passeig del Born.
